You're definitely a striker or a winger (I hope...)

Are you finding the latest F-50's? better than the vapors?

Can't find exact pics for some of these...

Puma King
Image

Nike something or other (Began with an "A", i think)

Puma Cellarator
Image
With normal studs

Adidas Predator

Nike R9
Image
Except with proper studs

Nike total 90's
Image

Umbro - No idea of the name but they were officially the worst boots of all time. They were blade which in our weather is not a good idea. And they fell apart. Last match of the season, i had to sellotape them shut and even then the inside sole came out. After the match i took my boot off and the whole heal of my sock was covered in blood. Apparently one of the "nails" that hold on the plastic bottom of the boot came through and stuck in my foot...

Nike total 90's again

Im actually really sick of all vapors and F50's.

They both have just turned to shit. Vapor I, II, III were the only good ones.

Im currently back in my Adidas Predator Powerswerves, they are fuckin amazing. Seriously one of the greatest preds along with Mania's and Pules's

Also the best F50 were the F50+, i had the red/white and the black/white, then the best Tunit F50 was the .7. Which i got in F30.7 because Tunit have been a shit boot for years and took them like 5 years to work out that your own screw in studs is a gimic if they are build of shitty plastic that breaks and your boots are back at Adidas more than on your feet.

Also a really important note:

When your boots break or tear, dont just buy a new pair, get them sent back to Adidas or Nike and you normally get a new pair or if they dont make them anymore you get a voucher for how much you paid for them. Dont feel like your boots are too old either, i sent back some Vapor II's a 2004 boot, last week and they gave me my full 300 bucks in voucher.

Well played in regards to getting all the money back.

I've primarily always been an adidas man. I loved my predator pulse, but I bought them at the wrong time when you're actually still growing.

I would assume so, I've always been told by people who bought their boots off prodirect, that if they tear, you're eligible for a refund/exchange, so I'm sure its the same with the manufacturer just as Nanny said with his nikeee's

They do it for Nike and Adidas, dont see why Puma wouldn't do it.

Just call up the Puma number and speak to someone, they will give you the address and you send it in and get a full money back refund.

If say you happen to grow out of some boots and then you accidently slip a screwdriver into the sole an split them and then maybe play in them one time to make them all dirty and then maybe you send them in and say they tore during a game and maybe they give you your money back and maybe i know someone who has done this several times and has new boots all the time, then maybe you didnt hear it from me. :lol:

Agree used to love preds but not so much no more, i refuse to pay over £50 for boots, 100+ is just ridiculous i have some £40 boots a couple of year ago, and i pair that were 90 a year later. the £40 boots are still in decent condition i sometimes still wear them, but the £90 ones are f*cked thats when i stopped spending stupid money on them haha

I have always liked the look of them, but I don't think I could ever wear them as they look quite, clunky?
